Originally released in 2012, the debut release from Fatdog quickly became a cult classic amongst fans of low-slung deep house. Outside of the studio his Werk parties were hosting the likes Marcellus Pittman, Theo Parrish, Move D, MCDE, Levon Vincent, Moodymann & Patrice Scott in the North East of England. This EP was a testament to the wild basement energy that culminated from those nights, marrying UK and Detroit influences with consummate ease.

‘Remember Me’ sets the tone with Chris Raine’s soulful croon laid over warm organ chords and a restrained electro synth hook, creating a swinging, late-night vibe. ‘U&Me’ drifts into dubbed-out, codeine-laced slo-house territory, deep and narcotic.
On the B-side, ‘Cookie’ channels Theo Parrish with its syrupy, hypnotic strut, while ‘Contact’ closes out with an electroid edge—perfect for the 3AM dancefloor stalkers.

Some 13 years later, WOLF have reached back into the archives and with permission from the man himself, have reissued this timeless EP for a new generation of record buyers.

No stranger to the decks and the dynamics that work the more open-minded floors, Fat Dog has garnered support with his explosive 'Werk' parties in the North East, most recently paying host to the likes of the 3 Chairs, Omar S and Patrice Scott. This limited EP is testament to the wild basement energy that has culminated from these nights, beautifully pressed on wax for this first ever vinyl outing. 'Remember' is a swinging downbeat vocal track based around a superb vocal improvisation from newcomer Chris Raine. An ambitious opener, this is fine UK hip soul with warehouse dancefloor swagger to boot. Next track, the Benji B endorsed 'Cookie' strips the vocals right down into a swirling motif of sunrise energy. This track sounds great on the radio, but will also find favour on the more discerning soulful floors. For a contrast flip over for the kraftwerkian micro-tech of 'Contact' to hear what a 'Werk' party sounds like at a hazy-eyed 3am and finally, as if all this wasn't enough check out the dubby, spaced-out brawn of 'u&me' which sees second outing for vocalist Chris.... on this EP which rounds things off nicely. For fans of Firecracker, Exit records and Prime Numbers, this exciting and multi-faceted EP marries UK and Detroit influences with consumate ease. One to watch...
